The 31-year-old hasn't played for his country for three years but is likely to be involved in the friendly in Belfast on 18 February.
He already has seven caps but wasn't a part of former Northern Ireland boss Sammy McIllroy's plans.
Sonner has made 20 appearances for The Reds so far this season since his summer free transfer from Walsall.
Darren Ward and Gareth Taylor have also both been called-up by Wales manager Mark Hughes. They play Scotland at the Millennium Stadium on the same date.
